Supervisors of the Checklist

The Supervisors of the Checklist are elected officials who maintain the list of all registered voters for the Town of Jackson.

Supervisors are elected for a six year term, one elected every even numbered year. They have the power to prepare, post and revise the checklist for elections. By law they are required to maintain voter information records, including completed registration files and the checklist in alphabetical order. They must also have a sufficient supply of standard voter registration cards for themselves and for the town clerk.

Supervisors are required to hold as many meetings as necessary to allow citizens in the community an opportunity to register or change party. They may meet at any time as long as they post and publish notice of the meeting.

Posting of Checklists - Prior to each election, the supervisors must post a current checklist at the town hall or town clerk's office. The posted checklist shall state the date, hour and place of the upcoming session for checklist additions or corrections.

Party Affiliation changes - a voter may change his party affiliation any time the supervisors are in session,except between the first day of the filing period for a primary up to the day of the primary election. They must hold at least one meeting prior to the filing period for the change of registration of legal voters.
